Hello,

Scheduled tasks in Doit.im will go to Doit.im calendar on Google.

And, any changes you make in Doit.im calendar on Google will not be synced back to Doit.im. In Doit.im Preferences, when you choose calendars that you want to sync with Doit.im, there is no "Doit.im calendar".

Shall you need any help or have additional questions, please feel free to contact us.

Hello,

Because it is unable to merge the data together. :( Some task properties on Doit.im are not supported on GCal and they will be lost when synced to GCal. And if then changes on Doit.im calendar on Gcal can be synced back to Doit.im, it will either cover the original properties or show up properties both on Doit,.im and Gcal. The former will cause data loss, while the latter will bring more data. Both are not what we want to see and will cause data corruption to a certain degree.

We will try to find a better way to solve it in the future and now to protect data, any changes you make in Doit.im calendar on Google will not be synced back to Doit.im.

If you have more questions about it, please do not hesitate to let us know.

Thanks for your support on Doit.im.
